Harlan is play by play. Olsen and Brady are color analysts.

yeah I know, personally I just lump all announcers together and pretty much can't stand listening to most of them and just mute the TV. I will listen to Harlan and Greg though.

Over Romo? No. And none of them touch what Jon Gruden was. 

Romo used to be solid but has been incredibly annoying to me that last few years. Gruden was the best in the last 10-15 years that's for sure.

At his start Romo changed the game, but that was mainly due to him sitting in on meeting and breaking unwritten rules about the game plan. He dropped fast after that great start. After Greg's first year, he passed Romo for my taste. Greg was talking too much and nervous his first few games, but once he got with the flow, he is the best right now.

I liked prime Gruden too, he had 10 something years of great passion and he did reward my ears. I wish he would do it again, "they" have let him back in the machine. Maybe he will pick up a mic in the future, he's been on pods and still has "it".

Without any hate added in, I would say that Olsen is about two to three times better than Brady. Olsen came in as a natural. Brady seemed somewhat uncomfortable in the beginning, but has shown signs of improvement. Romo does a decent job as well. There's something about knowing the game, and, as a fan, I always appreciate ex-players-turned-announcers who not only know their position, but everyone's position.

Brady only got the job because of his accomplishments on the field ,Greg is much more charismatic and entertaining and just as knowledgeable 

I was hoping he would really be our coach, but Caneles is doing alright 

 

 

You beat me to it. Charisma. You can hear how much Greg LOVES football. He’s enjoyable to listen to. I could only imagine seeing him and Luke team up on a Fox crew. 

Brady was awful. Smug. 

Greg could be a devastating offensive coordinator if he chooses to get back to the field.

    • I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though   
    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
